EVOQ.BIKE Cycling Podcast

Landry and Brendan break down why over-under intervals may be the best “bang for your buck” for raising FTP and building fatigue resistance, arguing they can outperform steady-state threshold work while better matching real race demands like surges, climbs, and pacelines. They explain FTP as the balance between lactate production and lactate clearance, and how alternating time just under and just over threshold trains your body to clear (and even recycle) lactate more effectively, including a nod to the Cori cycle. They also discuss when steady efforts still matter (e.g., certain time trials), warn against overdoing race specificity, and share ideas for making over-unders more fun, customizable, and improvised based on how you feel, plus where to find examples, coaching, and training plans.Chapters:00:00 Why Over Unders Win00:50 How Lactate Raises FTP02:13 Real World Race Surges03:27 When Steady State Helps04:38 Avoid Overdoing Specificity05:48 More Fun Than 2x2008:00 Lactate As Fuel08:51 Customize And Improvise10:30 Race Simulation Story12:47 Speed Focused TT Mindset14:10 Wrap Up Resources📧Email us at [email protected] or [email protected]👉Coach Bios: https://www.evoq.bike/brendan-housler-bio - https://www.evoq.bike/landry-bobo-bio Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/1317545Follow Along on Strava: https://www.strava.com/pros/5889👋🏽 If you're new to the channel, welcome!

In this video, Landry Bobo explains how cyclists can optimise their VO₂ max training based on their rider type. Not all VO₂ max workouts work the same for every athlete—sprinters and punchy riders often respond better to shorter intervals like 30/15s or 40/20s, while more aerobically strong riders such as climbers or time trialists may see greater gains from longer efforts like 5×5 or 4×8 intervals. Landry breaks down how to identify whether you’re more anaerobically or aerobically dominant and how choosing the right VO₂ max workout can help maximise performance and better prepare for racing.📧Email me at [email protected]👉Coach Bio: https://www.evoq.bike/landry-bobo-bio🚀Free Power File Analysis From a Professional Coach: https://www.evoq.bike/power-file-analysis-lbStrava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/1317545Chapters:00:00 Introduction – VO₂ Max Training Explained01:02 Identifying Your Rider Type04:41 Anaerobic vs Aerobic Riders07:00 Best VO₂ Max Workouts for Anaerobic Riders10:29 Best VO₂ Max Workouts for Aerobic Riders11:28 Training vs Race Specificity👋🏽 If you're new to the channel, welcome!

Just finished your race season? Don't jump straight into base training! September-October is actually PRIME TIME for targeting your biggest limiters and making breakthrough improvements. With your peak fitness still in the bank from racing, this crucial 8-week window lets you focus on quality sessions without race stress - whether that's getting explosive with anaerobic power, experimenting with new threshold intervals like over-unders, or trying constant power VO2 max work instead of your usual 30/30s. It's the perfect time to experiment with volume, cadence, equipment changes, and push your limits when you have the mental bandwidth to truly focus. Remember: base training needs 3-4 focused months, not endless zone 2, so use this time to squeeze that extra 1% out of your season! Check out our coaching services and training plans if you need help structuring this focused approach.

In this conversation, Brendan Housler and Owen Cole discuss various aspects of competitive cycling, focusing on training strategies, race preparation, and the importance of general fitness. Owen shares insights from his recent race experience, emphasizing the need for adaptability in training and racing tactics. The discussion also highlights the significance of endurance training and the balance between intensity and recovery in a cyclist's regimen.Even if you aren’t racing at Owen’s level, we highlighted some simple aspects of his training that you can apply to your own!Here are some of his simple gems:Focus on general fitness rather than overly specific training. Owen emphasizes that "being generally fit is more important than anything" because race situations can be unpredictable.Ride at the bottom of zone 2 for endurance training. Owen advises keeping endurance rides at "the very bottom of zone 2" to avoid excessive fatigue.Incorporate time on your time trial bike before doing intervals on it. Owen suggests doing "an endurance ride or an easy ride on it the day before" intense sessions.Don't fixate on power numbers during races. Owen says "power numbers don't win races" and can mess with you mentally if you're off your normal values.Balance training stress with life stress. Owen tracks exam dates in his training calendar to manage overall stress load.Don't overcomplicate things. As Owen puts it: "There's nothing crazy to it."Manage recovery time well, especially during tapers before big races.Remember that non-training factors are crucial: "There's no point in pushing the training to the limit if you're not going to do these other things" like sleep, stretching, and proper nutrition.Include variety in your workouts and "don't do the same workout too many times."Train all your energy systems to be prepared for any race scenario.Thanks, Owen!
